A term coined and popularized by Andrew X. Taylor, Whisker Tickled refers to the status of a man in a hetereosexual relationship who is on the cusp of becoming, but is not yet, pussy whipped. When a man is Whisker Tickled, he can no longer claim that he is carrying the balls in the relationship as he is gradually losing more and more control. He can be seen spending an ever increasing amount of time with the woman and gradually living at her mercy. When a man is Whisker Tickled, barring an intervention from his friends, it is only a matter of time before he reprioritizes the woman over everything in his life - friends, colleagues, work, school, other women, sunlight, water, etc.
